2006-09-12[GFS2] Use hlist for glock hash chainsSteven Whitehouse
This results in smaller list heads, so that we can have more chains in the same amount of memory (twice as many). I've multiplied the size of the table by four though - this is because we are saving memory by not having one lock per chain any more. So we land up using about the same amount of memory for the hash table as we did before I started these changes, the difference being that we now have four times as many hash chains. The reason that I say "about the same amount of memory" is that the actual amount now depends upon the NR_CPUS and some of the config variables, so that its not exact and in some cases we do use more memory. Eventually we might want to scale the hash table size according to the size of physical ram as measured on module load. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-11[GFS2] Rewrite of examine_bucket()Steven Whitehouse
The existing implementation of this function in glock.c was not very efficient as it relied upon keeping a cursor element upon the hash chain in question and moving it along. This new version improves upon this by using the current element as a cursor. This is possible since we only look at the "next" element in the list after we've taken the read_lock() subsequent to calling the examiner function. Obviously we have to eventually drop the ref count that we are then left with and we cannot do that while holding the read_lock, so we do that next time we drop the lock. That means either just before we examine another glock, or when the loop has terminated. The new implementation has several advantages: it uses only a read_lock() rather than a write_lock(), so it can run simnultaneously with other code, it doesn't need a "plug" element, so that it removes a test not only from this list iterator, but from all the other glock list iterators too. So it makes things faster and smaller. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-09[GFS2] Remove unused function from glock.cSteven Whitehouse
The callback for iopen locks is unused, so this removes it. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-09[GFS2] Add consts to glock sorting functionSteven Whitehouse
Add back the consts which were casted away in the glock sorting function. Also add early exit code. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-09[GFS2] Make glock hash locks proportional to NR_CPUSSteven Whitehouse
Make the number of locks used for hash chains in glock.c proportional to NR_CPUS. Also move constants for the number of hash chains into glock.c from incore.h since they are not used outside of glock.c. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

The superblock is now created with kmalloc, not vmalloc. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-08[DLM] confirm master for recovered waiting requestsDavid Teigland
Fixing the following scenario: - A request is on the waiters list waiting for a reply from a remote node. - The request is the first one on the resource, so first_lkid is set. - The remote node fails causing recovery. - During recovery the requesting node becomes master. - The request is now processed locally instead of being a remote operation. - At this point we need to call confirm_master() on the resource since we're certain we're now the master node. This will clear first_lkid. - We weren't calling confirm_master(), so first_lkid was not being cleared causing subsequent requests on that resource to get stuck.

2006-09-08[GFS2] Move rwlocks in glock.c into their own arraySteven Whitehouse
This splits the rwlocks guarding the hash chains of the glock hash table into their own array. This will reduce memory usage in some cases due to better alignment, although the real reason for doing it is to allow the two tables to be different sizes in future (i.e. the locks will be sized proportionally with the max number of CPUs and the hash chains sized proportinally with the size of physical memory) In order to allow this, the gl_bucket member of struct gfs2_glock has now become gl_hash, so we record the hash rather than a pointer to the bucket itself.

2006-09-08[GFS2] Use void * instead of typedef for locking module interfaceSteven Whitehouse
As requested by Jan Engelhardt, this removes the typedefs in the locking module interface and replaces them with void *. Also since we are changing the interface, I've added a few consts as well.

2006-09-07[GFS2] Remove unused sync_lvb code from lock modulesSteven Whitehouse
This code is no longer used for anything and can be removed from the locking modules. The sync_lvb function is not required as this happens automatically with the current locking system. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-09-07[GFS2] Remove one typedefSteven Whitehouse
This removes one of the typedefs from the locking interface. It is replaced by a forward declaration of the gfs2 superblock. The other two are not so easy to solve since in their case, they can refer to one of two possible structures.

2006-09-07[GFS2] Move glock hash table out of superblockSteven Whitehouse
There are several reasons why we want to do this: - Firstly its large and thus we'll scale better with multiple GFS2 fs mounted at the same time - Secondly its easier to scale its size as required (thats a plan for later patches) - Thirdly, we can use kzalloc rather than vmalloc when allocating the superblock (its now only 4888 bytes) - Fourth its all part of my plan to eventually be able to use RCU with the glock hash.

2006-09-02[ARM] 3762/1: Fix ptrace cache coherency bug for ARM1136 VIPT nonaliasing ↵George G. Davis
Harvard caches Patch from George G. Davis Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page() while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far too heavy on non-v6 CPUs". NOTES: 1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page(). 2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page". 3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before memcpy(). 4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page() case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access() function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case. Signed-off-by: George G.

2006-09-01[PATCH] fix NUMA interleaving for huge pagesNishanth Aravamudan
Since vma->vm_pgoff is in units of smallpages, VMAs for huge pages have the lower HPAGE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT bits always cleared, which results in badd offsets to the interleave functions. Take this difference from small pages into account when calculating the offset. This does add a 0-bit shift into the small-page path (via alloc_page_vma()), but I think that is negligible. Also add a BUG_ON to prevent the offset from growing due to a negative right-shift, which probably shouldn't be allowed anyways. Tested on an 8-memory node ppc64 NUMA box and got the interleaving I expected.
